Welcome back to a new school year. I hope you were able to relax and enjoy a lovely Christmas and holiday time with your family. I hope that 2021 will be a positive year for all our school community.

Opening School Mass

On Friday we will celebrate our Opening School Mass at 12 noon. At this Mass we welcome our new Kindergarten students and our new Staff members – Mrs Saunderson and Mrs Cal Reardon. We will present our Captain’s badges, introduce our Year Six leaders and present badges to the newly elected SRC Representatives for 2021.

Due to COVID restrictions the children will need to remain in their class group and not sit with their families. Families are welcome at the Mass but must remain socially distanced with each other.

Altar Serving

Thank you to our Altar Servers and their families for continuing their duties throughout the holidays. I know sometimes it can be challenging when people are away on vacation to uphold their commitments, but we are very grateful that Father was supported at weekend Mass. Thank you to those who just stepped in when there was a need. Your efforts do not go unnoticed.

We are in the process of organising a training day for all our Altar Servers. We will announce this date as soon as possible. If there is anyone who is not on the roster but would like to become an Altar Server, please let me know. A new roster will be sent home in the next few weeks.
